Unlike conventional laptops, Chromebooks uses Google’s Chrome OS, which promises instant connection to the Internet from boot-up to welcome screen in less than 8 seconds.

Measuring only 19.35 millimeters at its thickest point, the Chromebook C720 is one of the thinnest and lightest notebooks around.

It comes with an 11.6-inch screen and two USB ports on the side, one of which is already a USB 3.0 port that facilitates faster file transfers.

The entire notebook is powered by an Intel Haswell Celeron ultra-low-voltage processor, which gives it a long battery life of as much as 8.5 hours on a single charge for average use.

All these features made the Chromebook C720 the best-rated Chromebook to date, receiving the highest ratings from reputable tech review sites such as The Verge (7.8 score), PC Magazine (4 stars) and Laptop Magazine (3.5 stars), as well as a 4.5-star rating in top e-Commerce site Amazon.
